Regis Philbin RIP

Wow! For some reason, a few days ago, one of his Youtube videos was in my recommendation feed and i ended up googling the name of Regis Philbin because i wondered if he was still alive and how old he was. I used to enjoy his guest appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman where the two of them would make fun of each other. He was 88 years old. RIP.
